Hamster

Hamsters are rodents belonging to the subfamilyCricetinae. The subfamily contains about 25 species, classified in six or seven genera. They have become established as popular small house pets, and, partly because they are easy to breed in captivity, hamsters are often used as laboratory animals.

I'm not sure how much exercise hamsters need but I used to take my hamster out to let him run around a closed space (larger than his cage though). He'd love to squeeze through tight spaces. Also my hamster liked to dig tunnels in dirt while I know another hamster didn't so I guess it depends on you to find out what your hamster like to play/eat.

This is just cute! :) If you ever Were going to feed your hamster popcorn, do NOT let him eat it with butter, cheddar or seasonings. The little guy would get so sick!
Chocolate and sugar will cause him stomach pain as well, so steer clear!

Hamsters love Aspen bedding over pine shavings. I think it may be because of the dust contributed by pine is of large quantities and is very fine. Aspen on the other hand has very little dust and I think smells better :)
